RE: http://support.amd.c...iewDrivers.aspx

can someone tell me how to install it?

the installer can't identify the existence of my display card...

my card is Radeon Mobility HD 5650 on HP ENVT 14

Thanks in advance

The problem is that it's a Mobility part. While *some* Mobility parts are supported by the Release Preview driver (the HD5450, despite appearing in both desktops and portables, is actually a Mobility part), the same is *not* true for most other Mobility HD5xxx parts.

You will likely have to run the Windows 7 driver in Compatibility Mode.

In my case, I can "install" the package succesfully. However, there is a black border in my screen which I always get when I do a fresh install. I normally go into the Catalyst Control Center to setup the scaling option, but in my case the Catalyst Control Center simply does not install on my computer. I found some "CCC.exe" file, but no matter how I launch them (admin rights, comptability mode, w/e), it just does nothing.

I am on a Asus g73jh laptop (Radeon HD 5870 mobility).

Anyone having similar problems, or found a solution?

Same problem with my dell laptop and its HD5650. I had to ad the id of the graphic card to the inf file and disable driver signature to install prior to installing the driver. The driver is working well however I don't have the catalyst center.

It's not a great driver anyway :( Some images in Windows cut off and become blocky. However for me it installed perfectly first time. It's probably because you are all mobility. It's just not supported yet, try installing the windows 7 ones maybe?

I have similar problem.I have ATI Mobility Radeon hd5650 on my Acer.The consumer preview drivers on win 8 CP worked fine and they detected my card.Now running win 8 release preview and the release preview drivers can't detect it.Both drivers support AMD mobilty radeon hd5000 series,so i don't know why they wont work now.I am using the CP drivers which work and still detect my card.Can i make the release preview drivers detect my card by changing IDs or something like Pascal Elliot Bourasseau?

In my experience, Usually when CCC won't run it hasn't been completely installed. With one exception when that's happened the fix was to start up the AMD/ATI Install Mgr., uninstall CCC, delete the folder C:\Program Files (x86)\ ATI Technologies\ ATI.ACE -- C:\ Program FIles 32 bit -- & reinstall. The one exception I had required removing .NET stuff & reinstalling.

When you run the original driver setup pack everything expands into a new root folder -- a 2nd setup app runs from there. That's where you'll find the actual driver setup files, including the .inf file(s), Might also find modified drivers at Guru3D.com &/or info on modding them. Assuming you're using the latest preview drivers, might try the older version that installed successfully for you, or there was an unofficial win8 release at Guru3D, which was a modded win7 driver set -- *might* even try to use that unofficial release as a model or template on how to mod the latest preview drivers.

I have an Asus G73JH with the AMD Raedon 5870 graphics card too. My problem is that Asus hasn't updated their drivers since 2010. AMD walked me through a new driver that worked for one day, then started crashing my system. Asus told me I'm just screwed with this card and driver. What do I do?

    • I and many others did not vote to get out of the E.u because of Putin or Farage, we did so for our own reasons. You don't have to tel me what my own did or did not do when it comes to the E.U. The EEC is or was the European Economic Community, a different beast to what the E.U is now.The EEC was a mainly about trading, the E.U have gone far beyond that and as I have said before, is now more of a United States of Europe. The U.K did not vote to join a United States of Europe. Anyway, they did not want us in there in the first place, Charles de Gaulle stopped us joining as he claimed we didn’t agree with the core ideas of integration. He was not wrong and that is why we voted out of the E.U when the time came. I was not old enough to vote the first time. My only regret is that we did not have the referendum years ago and got out years ago. If we rejoined, we would have to agree to join the Euro and no doubt Schengen, agree with freedom of movement, we have enough problem with people coming over here as it is. i have no problem with people coming over here if they work and don't try to push their way of life onto us. The E.U has a currency, freedom of movement, an anthem a flag, a parliament, well they are there, not sure if they do anything. Don't sound like something that is just for trading. Oh yeah, also wanted a euro Army. How many stupid rules have the E.U made that we had to follow? I doubt I will see the Uk rejoin the E.U, which suits me. Oh yeah, my partner is Polish, she came over here before Poland joined the E.U and she got fed up of people just coming over here with ease, while she had to struggle. She is now a British citizen and have been for a fair few years
    • Hello, Paul. Thanks for the editorial. It was interesting. I'm going research more into the app and its concept. Of course, if you know me at all, you know that I'd say your articles needs some editing! I a;ways do, don't I? For instance, the article occasionally mentions a concept before defining it, e.g., relays.
    • Screamer is 50% off on Steam, making it £24.99 here in the UK: https://store.steampowered.com/app/2814990/Screamer/ You might remember the series from the mid 90s / early 2000s, this new game is also by Milestone who created the older games.
    • U.S. partially reverses Anthropic AI ban for Mythos but keeps Fable 5 off the market by Karthik Mudaliar Anthropic says that the U.S. government has finally allowed it to restore Claude Mythos 5. But of course, there's a catch. The rollout is again for a limited set of U.S. organizations that operate and defend critical infrastructure. The company announced this in a post on X (formerly Twitter). This does not mean that Anthropic's latest frontier models are back to normal availability. Fable 5, which was a tuned version of Mythos 5 for public release, remains unavailable. Anthropic said that it is still working with the government to expand Mythos 5 access and make Fable 5 available again, but there's no timeline. Reports from Bloomberg and Reuters say that this decision actually came through a letter from the U.S. Commerce Department. According to Reuters, this would allow more than 100 companies and institutions access to Mythos 5. Reuters also reported that Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick’s letter removes the need for export licenses for approved companies’ non-US citizen employees, as well as Anthropic’s own non-US citizen employees, while restrictions remain for organizations outside the approved list. Anthropic isn't alone with this kind of controlled rollout. OpenAI's newest model family, GPT 5.6, was announced just yesterday, but isn't available for everyone yet. In its announcement, OpenAI also said that access to these models is initially limited to a select group of trusted partners and organizations, with broader access planned later this year. Both of these cases show that frontier AI launches are no longer just ordinary product releases and more like slow and vetted deployments shaped heavily by the U.S. government.
